THE KIPPER CARDS: 36 SECRETS
FROM BAVARIA
The Petit Lenormand has some relatives from southern Germany and northern Austria, which is worth the
nice to know: the Kipper cards. With identically mysterious origins, and a little younger,
they contain 36 secrets as well and are an excellent complement to this oracle system
daily and realistic that we have been studying in this ocean garden. Although some cards
they symbolize the same concept, as they are universal concepts, they are not identical decks; the
Kipper contains nuances that Lenormand lacks and vice versa. I do not recommend falling into
the temptation to draw a parallel and equate them, but rather to study them in depth for
separated, and check later that they are an excellent complement when they play
together. Well, that is true, the reading system is the same as with Petit Lenormand, linguistic, for
association and direction, ending with the great board of 36 cards.
The Kipper deck, less known or less chosen, has only 3 copies that I
meet: the traditional belonging to the cartomantic fervor of the 19th century, the version of Leiding,
more modernized with clear signs of the 20th century, and a beautiful mystical specimen made by Urban
Trosch. He must admit that although he did not manage to read with the Mystic Lenormand that he made himself.
Trosch, in his version of the Kipper, I think he did an excellent job. However, for
we will delve into them here we will use the oldest and purest.
They have a Bavarian air, with the Biedermeier influence of the time, and one of their virtues,
Although it requires more discipline to read them, it is the profuse presence of human figures.

THELETTERS FROM PEOPLE
15
LOVE IN THE KIPPER CARDS
As we have been observing the details in the images of these other 36 secrets, the Kipper,
they are very relevant. The Kipper card 3, called 'Marital Status' (literal translation, from
from now on "the Marriage" and the Kipper card 4, "the Date", are 2 good examples of these
details.
The couple of the Marriage, outdoors and in view of everyone, dressed symmetrically with the
same colors, and she in gestation, comes to illustrate,
of course, the marriage already established, the
linked spouses, but also any type of
society. They are partners, and the bond is legal, civil.
This card can therefore talk about anything
contract, agreement, or commitment of 2, whether in
business, in the family, etc...; as well as a relationship
de relevancia para el tema. Sin embargo la pareja
what we see in Kipper 4 "the Date", is more intimate,
they are not out of sight of everyone, they have a Cupid
pointing at them, and he is clearly circling around her
she. That is why this letter describes to us the
romance, the lovers, the date and the meeting, and
it must be our significator when
let's talk about romantic love; but it can
appear to reflect a meeting, encounter, or appointment
between 2 that is not romantic, but a conversation
between 2 or union of 2 relevant elements for the
consultation, especially when it is not on topics
loving.
And completely aside is the Kipper card 15, literally called 'Good outcome in the'
"love". Its title encompasses two concepts (as we have seen before, this occurs in this
Kipper deck): "the good result" and "the feelings". And the symbols used in the
illustration, expand this conceptual range. The doves, which indeed allude to love, but also to
purity; the dog and the ivy, which are well known to allude to loyalty and constancy, are the
reliable feelings, those that endure, and bear good fruit: 'good outcome in love', good
result in love. But it also encompasses true friendship, honesty, loyalty and
loyalty. Of course, and like all, this letter will depend on its combination with the others that
they surround it, and from its location in the reading. For as a final letter, it does indeed foreshadow that loyalty and good
result in love, but at the beginning and with other more negative cards continuing the message,
It may be that the desired and expected result in feelings will not be achieved. Once again.
to emphasize that with these small treasures of just 36 cards, the COMBINATION of cards is
the key to its interpretation, and that a single card is highly discouraged to read.
Moreover, returning to the comment we made at the beginning of this journey through the Kipper:
Lenormand and Kipper are cousins, but not twins. As we can see, here in these 3 Kipper cards.
16
there is something about the Ring, something about the Heart, something about the Park, something about the Dog, and something about the Owls
17
CLASSICS
Let's go for the 'classics', cards with symbols and concepts almost always present in the
daily oracles, which are of course found in the Kipper.
However, it is in these classic cards where Kipper harbors some very different aspects.
interesting regarding Lenormand. It is important to see the difference, for example, between
Kipper 10: 'Journey' and Lenormand 3: 'Boat', for while both involve the concept of travel,
Kipper does not imply the 'foreign trade and distance' of the Lenormand Ship. The card
The 10 of Kipper is the journey, but above all the departure; it leaves, it goes, and heads towards somewhere.
another letter; and therefore on the great board it will tell us very well about what, who or where we
we must move away and towards whom or what we should direct ourselves; that, aside from its main
concept - travel - which will be determined according to the reason for consultation, of course. And also in
in contrast to the Lenormand Ship, we will NOT find the adjective 'distant' in the Kipper 10.
foreigner", as these are found in other letters that we will see later. Announce then: means
of locomotion, movements, departure and start of the journey, 'to leave something towards another something'.
The Kipper 19 and 20, however, are very purist and emphatic in their symbols and concepts. They are
the House: security, foundation and refuge, the home, and the family; and Death: an end, a
18
farewell, a closure, that which ends or has ended. I have found that very much like in
Lenormand, in certain consultations and topics, the House + a work or finance card can
to refer to one's workplace; and in the same way, that Death is a card that
it depends very especially on the cards that accompany it, position in the reading, and question
the subject of consultation, to tell us what concludes, when and if it is for good or for bad.
In any case, we already know what everything that surrounds an ending implies... it is over.
And I have left for the end of this group of Kipper cards today,
a very special letter that comes 'inherited' from the Sibyls... It
It deals with the Kipper card 21: The Stay. This mysterious image
alludes to several possible concepts: On one hand, it brings us the
intimacy, what happens behind closed doors, carrying a certain
secrecy surrounding her (albeit not as explicitly as the diary
what we see in "the Book" of Lenormand.
On the other hand, and depending a lot on its combination with the
next letter and the question, can it bring us a message from
solitude, silence, and emptiness. And finally refers to what is 'there'
same
very soon
weeks), and if it's in space, it's very close to you, "right next to you"
same". As we can see already in this small great treasure
Kipper has its opposing card in the Distance, which we will see very soon.
soon.
19
Dual letters
The following group of Kipper cards that I present and we analyze is made up of cards
dual; they can represent characters, but much more often they represent actions or
adjective to a character letter. They are...
When looking at the Military card number 22 of the Kipper deck, we must hold in our mind everything that a
A soldier represents: discipline, obedience, righteousness, compliance with norms and rules.
It also symbolizes uniforms, and all the professions that require it. The forces of
security. Also in the Kipper tradition, they say that he also symbolizes the sign of
"Achtung!" seems to tell us, "pay attention to this point in the reading, something will happen".
with certainty!
Our thief in sneakers from the Kipper card no. 24 has a lot of richness in detail in his
illustration, as we will see later, these details are used in the reading of the Kipper. Both
Doors that we see in Falsehood and in Theft have their special utility. The bunch of keys.
on the ground, and his sneakers, nothing is done just 'because'; they tell us that he is someone
known, in the case of being a swindler in our lives, is found in our environment and
we know who it is. But above all this card represents the shortage. Much like the Mice of
20
Lenormand takes away, robs, and reduces the card that remains to her right. She is the things that
they take away from us, the ones we lose, the disappearance and loss of that letter that accompanies it.
And lastly in this group we have the Kipper card number 30, the Jurist. It symbolizes above all the
conflict, the fight, discussion or disagreement that needs to be resolved, (or that has no solution)
depending on your companion's letter), and the anger that this implies. Although the image draws the
interrogation to clarify who is the guilty one, we must not forget that for it to happen
this situation must have a prior conflict and disagreement.
Can these cards symbolize people? In short, linear readings, from the triad to the
line of 9, yes, it can be like that. But we are already seeing that these small decks, these small
treasures of 36 secrets, as they truly shine is on the largest boards. And this
Kipper deck with its large number of character cards soon teaches us to see its drawings.
as concepts. The discernment of whether they are people or facts is the only difficulty that
it contains; for just as cartomancy should be, it contains no twists or symbolism
hidden, it is clear, crystal clear, where an image is worth a thousand words.
21
Letters of success, achievement, and progress
negative letters
4 types of success, achievement, progress, and improvement are provided by the Kipper deck. Let's take a look at them...
Cards 25 and 26, however, do not refer to successes and material wealth, but to the
truly important in life. Letter 25, which reflects and contrasts the poor house with
the opulent castle refers to the rise, to the triumph after a long or hard effort. It is the card
what does passing the exam, graduating, achieving the position one has prepared for symbolize.
It emphasizes the acknowledgment and reward for prior effort, thus being able to refer to
also to other types of topics that are not professional or intellectual, as always,
depending on the question and surrounding cards.
Letter 26, the most positive and beneficial card in the entire deck, shows us the goddess.
Fortune with her cornucopia pouring gold and flowers over the world. It is the card of the
blessings, from the absolute YES, of the greatest happiness. It has the gift of enhancing all reading of
the response, softening, and even nullifying, the effect of the negative cards. It is very
important in major boards to see on which card the spilled abundances fall from
his/her cornucopia.
22
And after seeing 4 positive cards from the Kipper, let’s observe 3 of the negative ones.
When contemplating the cell of card 29, we must see the symbol of confinement, the impediments,
restrictions and blockages. It is the card of impossibility, the lack of freedom of action, being
bound hand and foot. She brings us the great obstacles and hindrances, in a very similar way to
the Mountain of Petit Lenormand.
It is very important not to confuse cards 32 and 33. The first refers to adversity,

26, this 32 of the Ruin is the worst card of the Kipper deck. However, card 33 does not refer to
situations and tangible facts, but rather to a state of confusion, darkness, and negativity. It is the

With this article we conclude the presentation of the
36 Kipper-style secrets, German, explicit and

The Kipper card 18 'Little Child' brings together
a set of symbols and meanings that

Lenormand. It can symbolize the

And finally we come to the last two cards of the 36 Kipper. They are "The Long Road" (35) and "The

The Long Road is a temporary letter, it refers to the long and much time; indicating according to
location in the reading if it is
something or someone that comes from
remote past, or is it something or

this series of articles for your presentation and knowledge, before starting to observe your
behavior in reading. The methods and techniques of interpretation that are applied to them are
the same as Lenormand, but I hope I have managed to convey the nuances, big and
small differences in meanings between both decks, Kipper and Lenormand... cousins... but

3x3 spreads: two examples
Let's start observing the behavior of the
Kipper cards through a couple of examples of
queries with the small 3 x 3 board. In the
first example, the consultant wants to know what it is
the future of a romantic interest that he keeps.
We use a 3 x 3 board, placing
previously to the consultant in the center and
selecting 8 cards around you; we plan
we will read the 3 horizontal triads in advance
from left to right and from top to bottom, afterwards
the 3 verticals from top to bottom, and from left to
right, always from past to future, and finally the
large X from left to right as the final result.

1.:

the vertical line of the future tells us that there is bad news from the gentleman, as he
he is also tied up hand and foot.
The 2 diagonals of the great X from left to right tell us that the very ancient connection
between the two of them (35 + 2 + 5), is a love completely made impossible by the obstacles (29 - The
Prison, in final position.
Although the horse jump gives us beautiful underlying details of what it was, the diagonals and
the future vertical does not bode well for them. Let's practice nonetheless to see the language and
behavior of the Kipper. At first, it was very striking to see that the deck gave us the
Kipper 5 and not Kipper 1, this made sense since this interest was certainly
"clandestine". The knight jumps to the Kipper 28 and to the Kipper 26, claiming that he was also.
very happy with her (since I am taking the 28 in this case as a replacement for her and her
hidden thoughts). The card of the Long Path, 35, jumps to the change (Kipper 9) and to the bad
news (Kipper 14) telling us that in the past there was a sad change in this
relationship, change in feelings, as the 14 of tears jumps to the love card.
Finally the letter from jail (Kipper 29) those great impediments and obstacles, it seems
which are explained by 9 + 26 = change that produced a lot of happiness; and since the change already

he was associated with the knight, the Kippers advise this consultant to leave the
wait and forget this gentleman from your past.
In the second example, the query made is also regarding love, although fresh and
it turns out to be a man who asks about this topic and on this occasion. He wants
to know what the future holds with a lady I have met
recently. We applied the same reading method

And with this sweet taste that always leaves us the ability to give a positive reading to whoever wants it.

language.
